Re: ** on-site Trip Report ~~ Sunday evening.. ...... 06/07 ... pt. #2
..continue-ing..
.
.
time 5 pm
rain STILL falling
:-(
Old-man & landlord took naps
...me, daydreamed
.......and watch my cloths on the line get their second-rinse
...........and watched the water barrel & tank fill up.
.
.
this rain-day
is kinda cool
.....'cause temperatures are cool too
........nice relief, from the heat & humidity
.
.
my new Jamaican Nickname
not for sure,
but I *think* somebody(s)
is trying to give me a new nickname:::>>> '''...Country-boy Bill..''
i'm hoping & praying that this one doesn't stick
....i've already got about 6-7 nicknames
the other day,
i figured out something about those nicknames:::::: only certain people will call you certain names.....
for example,
in Negril,
the other day
a voice shouted:::>> '''...Hey, Chicago...''
me KNEW who it was
without seeing 'em
'cause ONLY one person calls me that
......and sure nuff, that's who called me
.
.
'''..Wacker...''' <<<<::: same way .. one 1-person calls me that
..
.
.
.
.
Jamaican Economy much better
.
I'm not an economist
but
there's something something going,
which brings me to the opinion
that things are much better
when it comes to money matters
.... especially for a foreigner
i haven't figured it all out yet,
but this trip,
my money seems to be going MUCH further/farther
CravenAs cheaper than cigarrete prices back home
phone calls cheaper, even to-foreign
food cheaper
even though taxi fare is higher
...it's MUCh cheaper than in USofA
cost of services --- cheap
construction costs ---- dirt cheap
